Abstract
A display panel is provided. The display panel includes: a flexible substrate including a display area and a non-display area; a thin film transistor layer formed on the flexible substrate; grooves formed in the thin film transistor layer corresponding to the non-display area; a planarization layer and a pixel definition layer disposed on the thin film transistor layer respectively; bumps formed in the non-display area after patterning the planarization layer and the pixel definition layer; and a light emitting layer and a thin film encapsulation layer formed on the planarization layer in order, wherein the thin film encapsulation layer covers the bumps and the grooves.
Description
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of display screens, and more particularly, to a display panel.
Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) devices, which have the sensitivity to water and oxygen, need to be encapsulated by a thin film after finalizing a light emitting layer in order to reduce the erosion of external water and oxygen, thus prolonging their life.
Thin film encapsulation for OLED devices proceeds after finalizing a light emitting layer. As shown in FIG. 1 , a thin film encapsulation layer 10 covers and encapsulates the whole display area 11 together with gate on array (GOA) circuits 12 surrounding the display area 11. When an interlayer dielectric (ILD) film 13 is formed by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process, the temperature for the formation need to reach at least 350° C. due to high requirements for qualities of films. Through adjusting working conditions, it can continuously improve stresses between films and thus cause films to match well, without peeling due to the excessive difference of stresses in the same position. However, because light emitting materials are extremely sensitive to temperatures, the thin film encapsulation can only proceed at low temperatures approximately between 80° C. and 100° C., causing the quality of the thin film encapsulation layer 10 to be different from the quality of the ILD film 13 on a thin-film transistor (TFT) substrate and resulting in inconsistent stresses between films. Once the excessive difference of stresses causes films to peel, the effect of the thin film encapsulation will be difficult to be realized. For the portion of display panels on glass substrates, films most easily peel around the edges of the glass substrates.
Therefore, it is required to provide a display panel in order to solve deficiencies existed in current technologies.
The present disclosure provides a display panel to improve the risk of peeling for a thin film encapsulation layer and lower layers of the display panel.
The technical solution for solving the problems above is described as follows:
A display panel, provided in the present disclosure, including: a flexible substrate including a display area and a non-display area which is positioned around the display area; a thin film transistor layer formed on the flexible substrate; a plurality of grooves formed in the thin film transistor layer and positioned in the non-display area around the display area; a planarization layer disposed on the thin film transistor layer; a pixel definition layer disposed on the planarization layer and defining a pixel area; at least one bump formed in the parts of the planarization layer and the pixel definition layer, which are located in the non-display area, and located between each two adjacent grooves through patterning; a light emitting layer formed on the planarization layer and disposed corresponding to the pixel area; and a thin film encapsulation layer formed on the light emitting layer and configured to package the light emitting layer, wherein the thin film encapsulation layer covers the at least one bump and the plurality of grooves in the non-display area.
In the display panel of the present disclosure, wherein the at least one bump or the plurality of grooves are disposed at an interval and in the area from an edge of the light emitting layer to the edge of the thin film encapsulation layer, which faces the same direction as the light emitting layer.
In the display panel of the present disclosure, wherein the plurality of grooves having different depths are disposed in the layers from the thin film transistor layer to a surface of the flexible substrate.
In the display panel of the present disclosure, wherein the thin film encapsulation layer corresponding to the non-display area has a section whose shape matches a shape of the at least one bump or shapes of the plurality of grooves.
In the display panel of the present disclosure, wherein each of the plurality of grooves has a trapezoid or ladder-shaped section.

In the preparation of the array substrate of the display panel provided in the disclosure, grooves or bumps can be formed in a non-display area surrounding a display area while applying photolithography to different layers. In a thin film encapsulation process, a thin film encapsulation layer covers the grooves or the bumps in the non-display, so that the thin film encapsulation layer and the other layers that lie beneath it are embedded each other and thus tightly combined without peeling easily. At the same time, inorganic layers in the thin film encapsulation layer can contact inorganic layers in lower layers through the grooves, so that the sealing effect of the thin film encapsulation layer will be better. In addition, such design enlarges contacting areas between the thin film encapsulation layer and the other layers that lie beneath the thin film encapsulation layer, causing the abilities of adherence of the layers to further increase without peeling easily.
In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present disclosure or technical solutions in current technologies, the drawings required for describing of the embodiments or current technologies will be briefly introduced below.

The thin film encapsulation layer 40 corresponding to the non-display area has a section whose shape matches the shapes of the bumps 43 and the grooves 42. Passing through the first grooves, the second grooves and the third grooves, the first inorganic layer 401 contacts the inorganic layer that lies beneath it, causing the performance of the encapsulation of the thin film encapsulation layer 40 to increase further.
